St. Michael Catholic School, established in 1997, is a parish elementary and middle school with approximately 700 students in Preschool through eighth grade. St. Michael School is accredited through AdvancEd and the Kentucky Commission for Non-Public Schools. St. Michael School is also a member of the National Catholic Education Association (NCEA) and was awarded Blue Ribbon School status by Blue Ribbon Schools of Excellence, Inc.

The school has a reputation for excellence in academics and a caring, family environment, which facilitates learning and the child’s spiritual, social, emotional, and physical growth. We recognize a collaborative partnership between parents, teachers, and students. Within this nurturing community of mutual respect, students become responsible lifelong learners. St. Michael graduates are well prepared for academic success in high school and beyond.

All students are admitted to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. The school does not discriminate on the basis of sex, race, or ethnic origins in the administering of its educational policies, admissions policies, athletic and other school-administered programs.

The campus is located on 16 acres in Louisville, KY. The school includes:

• More than 30 classrooms, including library, music room, art room, resource rooms, gymnasium with a walking/running track, cafeteria, two playgrounds, basketball courts, and an athletic field. We also have the Bill and Margaret Evans Technology Center.
• St. Michael is a dual-access platform where students utilize both iPads and Chromebooks. We are 1:1 in grades K-8th.
• The curriculum is supported by the Louisville Archdiocese and can be found at archlou.org/curriculum.
• Our cafeteria features multiple hot lunch options each day and each Friday is a "Vendor Friday."

Many of our faculty members have Master's degrees and beyond. Additionally, we have a full-time Principal, Assistant Principal, two School Counselors, School Office Manager, School Receptionist, and two resource teachers. Each preschool, kindergarten, and first grade classroom have full time assistants. Grades 2-8 have rotating instructional assistants.

Students in grades 5 and 8 take the ACRE assessment (Religion test). All students in grades K-8 take the STAR Reading Assessment each quarter to assess and monitor reading progress. MAP Testing is given in K-8th grade in Math and Reading; grades 3-8 also take Language Usage and Science. Students in grade eight who plan to attend a Catholic High School will take the High School Placement Test, which is the admissions test for Catholic high schools in the area.

The school day begins at 7:45 a.m. with student drop off beginning at 7:15 a.m. We have buses, walkers, carpool and after school care until 6:00 p.m.

Parents may receive voice calls, text messages, and/or emails for school alerts.

We also send out a school-wide newsletter for families called Knights News.
